THIS IS WHAT NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED FOR DEMOCRACY TO WORK MORE SMOOTHLY AND TRY TO RESOLVE THE HATE THESE DAYS . . .

Gene, you make a good point that your presence provides and alternate position to the publisher's viewpoint. Your use of the "Obviously Conservative" handle, which the publisher accepts as truth, begs the question of why you do not except the "Obviously Liberal" handle. We have been down the road on test being designed to bring all toward the center. Perhaps a good post on what is a good Liberal, Progressive, and Democratic Socialist is would be worth the effort.
I can only assume that since you believe that Conservative is a pejorative term which is thrown like a dagger you also believe that Liberal is the same and thus your reluctance to accept it.
If you will look at your stats under the BCN Member list at the top of the pages you will see that you have (206 article(s) & (1,477 comment(s). That is hardly something that qualifies as being gagged and censored.
Where you are getting off base is your tendency to use nonfactual references to specific points and then extrapolate some sinister reason for action. If you reduce the hyperbole and overly exaggerated adjectives perhaps, your points would carry more weight. Simple logic and facts should be enough to make a point without resorting to the Stamp Parade.
Try to lighten up and enjoy the ride sometimes.

BCN has the ability to remove two of the three ingredients to smother this firestorm (audience and access) and yet GS you continue to childishly taunt. Like Don Quixote, I suspect you see this as a quest when it is merely a discussion requiring factual basis for ascertains made on this forum.
GS, this is not a free speech issue, you were invited to attend and required to register in order to make comments and post. BCN has the sole discretion on what is allowed on this forum. It is just like your Facebook page "Democrats Active in Beaufort County for Change (link below)" where you have control over content and require registration to make comments or post there. Save the ad hominem comments for that page, engage here with real debate and not talking points or slander.

"The laws are even MORE restrictive when you are in a private location. This includes a private person's home, their car, their back yard, and their private web forum. All of these are owned by an individual and are governed by the rules of that individual. This is a critical part of law, that an individual has full rights over what is said in the location they own.
It is nonsensical for a person in that situation to complain, "but I can paint my house blue in Orlando, Florida, so I should be able to do it here too." That comparison has nothing to do with the rules of the private entity. If a private entity chooses to make rules about X or Y, then those rules are in force in that private location. They are legally binding.
The same is true for a web forum. A web forum is a private location, run by a private entity, and maintaining a set of rules for all forum members to abide by. Those rules are publicly posted and all members need to abide by them.(1 ref available)".
The solution is simple, "Admit you used inaccurate information in your comments or that you did not bother to confirm the accusations, or produce specific facts to back your assertions".
Maybe we can then get back to real debate of issues.

There is no free speech for known dishonesty on BCN. It is known as slander, and your next comment pertaining to me or anything to do with the governing of Beaufort County will be blocked. Lies will not be tolerated here.

Or, you can truthfully explain what and when I voted to waste the People's treasure, and then you may be restored fully to the BCN community. Your choice.

Gene, then answer the last question posed by me, or just sincerely apologize for your dishonesty.

It is that simple.

Commented: Wednesday, September 23rd, 2015 @ 7:12 am By: Stan Deatherage

Your straw man reality is for idiots, and you have gone there.

If you want me to see all sides of a dishonest argument, then I'll tell you what I see: You, Gene, are a dishonest person, who babbles about issues that you, in all reality, know nothing of.

You talk about "Hate" and "Greed" and "Conservative" as if it is the answer to any real question, and furthermore, and this the overarching symbol of your practiced belief 'that the end always justifies the means', there is no way that you can ever conceive the science of math. That is provable with your stupid position that if one could lower the tax values 30%, across the board, then that automatically lowers the taxes the People pay by 30%. There is no world where that math works, not even in that of a full bore Liberal / 'Middle of the Road' wannabe.

Now, Gene, you know that I now see your side of this argument, and it is as true as one day following the next - you are patently dishonest in your discourse on BCN.

As far as my credentials, they are beyond your reproach ... far beyond your reproach.

So, from here on out, if you want to attack my time as a commissioner, me as a person, or me as a professional, you better have some facts, real facts, or your comment, your post will never find its way to the the pages of BCN.

This is where I draw the line on your dishonest behavior here. This is where I can unequivocally prove your slander, and it will end now for me, and my publication.

What you do and say else where is what I choose to not make my business.

At least I can do math. At least I am intellectually honest. And, at least my voting record reflects such, and therefore is as good, and mostly better, than any commissioner in modern Beaufort County history. And that is from a historic perspective.

These are all real events, tangible knowledge that you know have no experience with, no knowledge of, and yet you still offer an opinion as if you have good sense. You do that often on issues that you have no real knowledge of. You really should consider seeking that refund from "Dear"

You're probably right; I can do math.

Plus, I know history quite well, and can read with great retention, so, there is no way I could follow in your footsteps to Emory.

By your Emory standards, I must be:

A Southern Conservative would have his eyes opened at Emory --- now, Stan, your only hope is an Emory-trained eye-ear-and-nose surgeon. Brain surgery is out of the question---unless you can shoe me the CAT SCAN that proves you have a brain rather than a Conservative Rock Substitute. . .

I am disappointed when anyone declares WAR a "thing we must do as humans." I agree that we have a sordid record of killing and greed as MANKIND. The White Men of the planet seem to have some kind of "delusions of grandeur" complex thinking we can rule the South and expect anyone with darker skin to bow to us and do the dirty work.

Kennedy negotiated Peace with Russia over Nuclear Testing in the Atmosphere. He wanted to keep us out of Vietnam and other Far Eastern clandestine activity. He appeared to have little to no relationship to Big Oil which thrives on war and low prices paid to the owners of the desert sands. Just now we are seeking a renewed relationship to Cuba.

The Conservative Reagan-god committed billions of our dollars on Star Wars technology that really did not produce reliable defense weapons. We out-spent Russia to the point their economy went belly up. Now we don't know who has been sold their nuclear play-toys alongside US play-toys in abundance . . .

I say: "We never find progress through war except in more technology to kill more people in the future. We have the power of the sun in our human hands---just as those who built the Tower of Babel to figure God out. Could that tower have been an ancient memory of a rocket which blew mankind back down deep in caves and radiated animals into becoming "Thunder Lizards"????

History always repeats itself. Do we learn to live more kindly and respectfully ever?????

You know Ted, that is the hard truth of it.

There has never been continual peace, there will never be continual peace, and for a president to govern as if there are no threats to this American public is not only naive, it is treasonous.

Stan requested I write an article some months ago concerning ANGER and TRUTH. This morning I did a review of my articles and this one applies to much of the political wrangling right now. It also applies to the Moslem/Christian battle from long ago --- and now renewed with the Middle East War over TERRORISM.

Pacifism did not work before World War II, and it will not work now.

Apologies for America, while Christians perish, and Liberals find a moral equivalency to explain why the best of America still cares about a world that we helped keep relatively safe for a while.

A safer world equates to a safer America. Actually, it is a very Christian concept.

I beg your pardon, Stan---but you are doing the Conservative dance over "hate without appearing hateful." Killing is Killing--- mass or individual / hate is hate ---whether to an individual or a group.

I am trying to be to the point and stay nice, but you and Robert are so Conservative as to not see how the hateful parts of Conservatism aren't nice ~~~ in fact pure EVIL. Hitler and the Nazi Party did not see it either / the nation of Germany did awful things --- thinking they were Aryan Supremacists deserving whatever they took.

When you loose you moral center----as we did with POW Torture of Bush/Cheney----I just call it "immoral evil with stupid people not seeing the immoral part of it."

Psychosis is dangerous. Too many are suffering from such today = you DO NOT KNOW YOURSELF AND EVEN IN THE MIRROR HAVE ON A MASK OF NICE.

God is not fooled and sees you to your core of foolish humanity. Jews of the OT were convinced God commanded them to commit genocide on all the people and animals they were to conquer. Jesus just whupped tail on the Moneychangers at the Temple who suffered from the same DECEPTION, my brothers. . .
